RM and Barcelona apparently didn't make a move for him

Yahoo : Allardyce resigns as Crystal Palace manager

 

LONDON (Reuters) - Crystal Palace's former England manager Sam Allardyce has quit the Premier League club five months after being appointed and said on Tuesday that he was leaving soccer management.

 

Allardyce, 62, kept south London side Palace in the top flight after replacing the sacked Alan Pardew in December, when the club was in 17th place just one point above the relegation zone. He had signed a 2-1/2 year contract.

 

"It's been a privilege to have worked here for the past five months. But there comes a time when you have to take stock of what direction you want your life to take - and that's been the simple part for me," Allardyce said in a statement.

 

"This is the right time for me. I have no ambitions to take another job, I simply want to be able to enjoy all the things you cannot really enjoy with the 24/7 demands of managing any football club, let alone one in the Premier League."

According to James Nursey of Daily Mirror, deal done. Jermain Defoe has agreed a three-year deal with Bournemouth worth £130k a week.

I'm reading that his pay is actually around £65k with some quoting £80k per week with £6mil signing on fee since he is on a free. Either way, u can see it as signing a proven goal scorer or overpaying for an old player but Bournemouth really pushing their resources cos some reports linking Terry with them as well.

Quite risky to tie him for 3 years. He is not young anymore.

Agree for tying up a 'oldie' striker for 3 years.

 

If it is GK then should be more sensible.

Coutinho explains why he'd snub Barcelona for Liverpool stay

 Omnisport Mon, 22 May 10:13 PM IST

Philippe Coutinho wants to establish a legacy at Liverpool rather than leave and be "another player" at Barcelona, Bayern Munich or Real Madrid.

The Brazilian enjoyed his best season at Anfield since arriving from Inter in January 2013, scoring 13 Premier League goals and registering seven assists.

Coutinho signed a long-term contract, believed to run until 2022, in January but reports of interest from Barca have remained persistent, with Klopp having to address the issue at recent news conferences.

However, the 24-year-old has allayed concerns he will be on the move in the close-season, outlining why he would prefer to stay at Liverpool.

"Stay here and they will end up building a statue in your honour," Coutinho said in an interview with ESPN Brasil.

"Go somewhere else, to Barcelona, to Bayern Munich, to Real Madrid, and you will be just another player. Here you can be something more.

"I have a long contract with Liverpool. Speculation is for journalists only."

Liverpool secured Champions League football next season with a 3-0 win over Middlesbrough on Sunday, and Coutinho was proud of the way they reacted to a run of one win in seven top-flight outings at the start of 2017.

"We started the season very well, I started well. But then in the middle the performances went backwards," he said. "Then we bounced back, I finished the season at a high level.

"The whole team is playing well, today [sunday] was a very important victory, next season it’s the Champions League."

 

 

is this the best news for all pool fans?

Think that comes with the belief that trophies will be won to establish a new era of wins.

The Chileans apparently have decided on where Sanchez should be playing his football next season.

[Civic2000]

Now finishing 6th is better than 4th. 6th enter direct to the group stage of UCL, and the 4th needs to win play-off to be in the group stage.
